The 2007 TAC 4-LOM (30 41) figure has ALWAYS bothered me. He always looked too chunky for my tastes. I was disappointed when he was reissued without any tweaking in The Vintage Collection three years later. But as soon as I had the Disney Droid Factory "4-LOM" Build A Droid figure in my hands, I knew Disney got it right. Good friend Josh M. knew this too and repainted one of these Disney Droid Factory sculpts in the same color scheme of 4-LOM. See for yourself how much improved and screen accurate the character looks utilizing this sculpt. Josh, I need this!Please tell me how much!

Our friends at SWAN have posted a beatiful gallery of custom The Force Awakens figures on gorgeous vintage-styled card backs on their Facebook page. Check them out. If only Hasbro wasn't asleep at the wheel. The only thing going against this beautiful custom work is that the characters are all from The Force Awakens (I am kidding.... maybe....)

JTA reader and friend Josh M. isn't waiting for Hasbro to correct the screen inaccuracy of the Walmart exclusive First Order Stormtrooper. He made it perfect rather easily. Click the image to check out what he did.

Our very own Sjefke is at it again with another one of his impressive customizations. Now, he works on a character that Hasbro has egregiously ignored for much too long (unless they're saving it for a special vintage-inspired relaunch... wink, wink). Anyway, click through to see the magnificent touch of an artist's hand on a miniature work of art like this custom Yak Face action figure. Click through for more! Be careful, Sjefke, our friends at Yakface.com will want this!

We have been contacted by McRobo Creations about thei impressive 3.75" Khetanna Sail Barge. There are also making other large-sized Star Wars vehicles too. Since Hasbro has basically said they will not be making this, here is likely your only chance to get one. Check out what they're offering!

JTA reader Carlos Junior C. sends us an impressive set of images showing off a custom he converted from the Rebels Saga Legends Lando Calrissian (Skiff Guard Disguise) figure. It now has a removable helmet. If you watched the latest Wolfpack Podcast you saw Jayson from Yakface.com show us what this figure's head looks like without the helmet. Now see what customization does for this figure. It really doesn't look half that bad with a removable helmet now! Click through for more!

JTA reader thirdfloor sends us pictures he took of The Black Series 6" Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) figure with the cloak from The Black Series 3.75" Darth Malgus figure. While there is no denying that the cloak is not to scale (and evidently too short), we have to admit that it adds some amazing depth to the lightly accessorized 6" figure. Click each thumbnail below to see larger images.

DKE Toys has made some kitchy Star Wars figures. but some of them are arguably quite cool. (Raunchy female C-3PO anyone?) They have many hand made custom original art figurines by artists who have used Star Wars themes in their work. Stop by their page on Flickr to see their images HERE. And if you're going to SDCC, be sure to visit DKE Toys at booth #5045.
